Re: [Easy400Group] CgiDev2 and MMail

I have developed many applications making use of both CGIDEV2 and MMAIL.
 
Since the beginning I found out that referring directly to CGIDEV2 or MMAIL service program is a desgn mistake,
as any time I would receive a refresh of one of them, my application would no loger work because of the different service program signature, until I updpgm all the involved application programs.
 
The correct design would then be that of duplicating the two service programs into the application library, and making up a binding directory which refers to them both.
 
However, many programmers would not feel very confident in implementing such an approach.
This is why I built two commands, one in library CGIDEV2 and one in library MMAIL.
They are both named SETCGILIB.
Run them (one at a time) versus your application library and you will be done in a few seconds.

Subject: [Easy400Group] CgiDev2 and MMail

Hi All,

 

My Company currently has a website running on the Apache server on the As400 that was totally developed Using Cgidev2.

Now we are trying to use the Mmail utility service programs and Library set to send Emails instead of reports from the As400

to our Salesmen and maybe our customers as well.  When I look at the Mmail examples and Library objects it looks like Cgidev2

and Mmail use a lot of the same stuff.. Eventually there will be links or buttons to send E-mail from the Cgi programs on the

web pages coming from Cgidev2. My question(s) are as follows:

 

  1. Can the same Service program Cgisrvpgm2 be used by both MMail and Cgidev2?
  2. What Library do I get the /Copy from for a Cgi program using Cgidev2 and Mmail?
  3. Is there a way to have these  2 utilities combined?

 

Tia,
